The process of engaging the Canadian public for international aid contributes to promoting global citizenship among the population. Canadians become aware of Canada's international aid efforts, including the Feminist International Assistance Policy and, more broadly, of Canada's contributions to the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals. Ultimately, by better understanding how local issues relate to global issues, Canadians will be inclined to take actions that will contribute to a peaceful, prosperous and inclusive world.
The PE Toolkit is a collaborative and evergreen platform to support Canadian organizations that want to engage Canadians on global issues. It has been designed for a wide audience of practitioners, regardless of their level of familiarity with the field of public engagement. The tools and resources presented in this package have been developed by Global Affairs Canada, Canadian partners, other federal entities and international organizations.
Information and resources have been aggregated and organized to align with the three-stage continuum of behavioural change to become a citizen of the world: awareness, understanding and action.

This uniquely Canadian tradition also aims to celebrate Canadian contributions to poverty reduction and international humanitarian assistance. Across the country and abroad, Canadian individuals and organizations mark this week by participating in and organizing IDW activities. IDW is Global Affairs Canada’s flagship public engagement initiative and development communications campaign. It represents a great opportunity for the government and organizations to engage their audience on global issues, on top of being an excellent platform to showcase public engagement and global citizenship initiatives. During the next edition of IDW, consider taking part in the celebrations by organizing your own activity. You can have a look at the IDW activity planning guide, use the IDW visual identity and add your activity to the IDW online calendar.
